Safe sex pushes VD up

A generation taught the fairy tale of safe sex in middle school and high school in New York City now suffers Venereal Disease at a rate their parents did not.From the New York Post:

Reports of syphilis have soared by 29 percent in the latest fiscal year to 1,700 — and people under age 34 account for most of them, according to city data.

Health Department figures also showed an increase of 6.5 percent in reported cases of gonorrhea (to 8,514) and of 6.2 percent in cases of chlamydia (to 32,604) when comparing Jan. 1 to June 30, 2016, with the same six-month period in 2015.

The bulk of new cases of sexually transmitted diseases were in the 15 to 34 age range.

“It’s certainly been well documented that among adolescents and young adults, those who are sexually active tend to have multiple serial relationships or concurrent relationships. Within the context of unprotected sex, that could amplify the spread of disease,” said Dr. Susan Blank, a deputy commissioner at the city Health Department.

“I think what it underscores is whether there is a decrease [in condom use] or not, the fact is that we need to encourage condom use.”

Mission accomplished, liberals. You managed to undo years of hard work by public health officials by peddling the fantasy that you can be promiscuous while at the same time being disease free.

The problems with safe sex are condoms are imperfect, and no guy wants to wear one.

Preaching abstinence works better because it has a lower failure rate.

Witness the change in VD rates.

Hate the media? Love The Donald? "Trump the Press" is the book for you. It skewers media experts with their own words. "Trump the Press" is available as a paperback, and on Kindle.

Illegals, migrants, "refugees", third world immigrants have the highest incidence of untreated disease. TB, STD of all varieties, measles, mumps, whooping cough, antibiotic resistant everything, variations of tropical diseases such as Zika and dengue fever, paralysis which may be a new form of polio, and any and every kind of crud. Our local health director, a retired physician, says they are filthy, diseased, and resistant to any information on hygiene, taking FREE medication, behavior change or self isolation. They spread it all with glee. And our millenial "world citizens" want to "mix" in with them so it spreads. Elliott

Spot on! Even cases of leprosy are being reported. But there is a large component of STDs due to "sex education" in schools. Like unmarried mothers (and illegal immigration), if you subsidize it you will get more of it. - Elric
